You don’t need to license each of your comments. By default you retain all ownership. So you applying a license is strictly allowing more use.

Or different use. I like to be explicit with how my content is to be used.

    No, it is more. You aren't restricting anything, it is just a superset of uses. If you want to explicitly license your comments for wider use that is fine, but don't misrepresent it as "Anti Commercial-AI". Just frame it as licensed for non-commercial use.

    There are restrictions included in that license, you're incorrect in that.

    But my point, which you are ignoring, is that when someone includes a license it doesn't have to be for more restrictive nature, or for more open one, but just different from the default if the content was not explicitly notated with a licensed.

    but don’t misrepresent it as “Anti Commercial-AI”. Just frame it as licensed for non-commercial use.

    I'm not misrepresenting anything, you're the one getting overly hung up on that short layman's sentence which describes my purpose for including the license in the comment.

    The actual representation of the license it's included to the right of that sentence.

    I'm pretty sure we're not going to agree on this, you really weirdly seem hung up on this, and I'm not agreeing with your opinion on the matter, so let's move on from this point.
